Sam Mendes Takes Bond on Location in Newest 'Skyfall' Video Blog

"The location itself actually ends up in some ways dictating what the action of the scene is going to be." It's Bond Day! In celebration of all things James Bond, we've got plenty of new content, including another 007 video blog. This one focuses on the major shooting locations for Skyfall, directed by Sam Mendes. This includes places like Shanghai, China and Istanbul, Turkey. Most of this is narrated by first assistant director Michael Lerman, talking about great locations and using them to enhance the action. We've already been well briefed in a London video blog and I watched them shoot in Istanbul first hand, but this is just as good.

Here's the latest Bond on location video blog for Sam Mendes' Skyfall, in high def from YouTube:

Skyfall is being directed by Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Road to Perdition, Jarhead, Revolutionary Road, Away We Go), from a script by John Logan, Neal Purvis and Robert Wade. Skyfall will once again star Daniel Craig as James Bond 007, along with Javier Bardem, Dame Judi Dench as M, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney, Naomie Harris, Bérénice Marlohe, Helen McCrory, Ola Rapace with Ben Whishaw. You can also follow the official twitter @007 for updates as well, they've been tweeting photos and more. Columbia Pictures, Eon Productions and MGM have Skyfall set to hit US theaters on November 9th this fall. We'll continue to keep you updated on all things Bond. Check out my on set experience in Istanbul. I can't wait!
